I'm relieved to see that on all three nests we are watching, the season seems to be not that bad after all! Even if quite a few birds are included! Frogs have not appeared that regular last summer, it was too dry, this year it's wetter, so they also keep on coming! :thumbs:

Yes, despite of what we feared, this LSE season has been one of the best. Three nests and three chicks, and non of them are starving :2thumbsup:

17:20 - 17:36, Eha left the nest for a minute and returned with a dry twig. She found a place for the twig, and then she gave Kalev food, mole I think. I can see that Koit has filled up the storage, food is lying on the edge of the nest. Eha ate herself also.

Koit brought a bird for food and Kalev seemed to be very hungry, he was excited an couldn´t hardly leave the prey out of his beak :nod:

After the feeding Eha left and came back with a new green twig to stuff the nestbowl :shake:

Kalev very very relaxed in the nest :mrgreen:

Koit had brought some exotic food :shock:

A relaxed afternoon, as far as I have seen... :nod:

A a little while ago little Kalev is alone and was fast asleep when suddenly Koit came soundless to bring a prey.

Kaley scared, spreaded the wings and opened the beak widely.

When Eha came back to the nest she started immediately feeding Kalev.
